Gross anatomy of the stomach and intestine of an antarctic minke whale (Balaenoptera bonaerensis)
The gastrointestinal tract of a female, immature (2400 kg body mass, 6.6 m body length) southern minke whale (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) was investigated. The forestomach had a non-glandular, keratinized squamous epithelium which was separated from the fundic chamber by a clear border between a kerat...
